Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI) 129, known as VPN Multicast SAFI, provides the capability to support multicast routing in the service provider's core IPv6 network.

1 Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI) 129, known as VPN Multicast SAFI, provides the capability to support multicast routing in the service provider's core IPv6 network. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN) provides a means for service providers to use different encapsulation methods (generic routing encapsulation [GRE], Multicast Label Distribution Protocol [MLDP], and ingress replication) for forwarding MVPN multicast data traffic in the service provider network. The feature is required to support BGP-based MVPNs.

Prerequisites for Before you configure a SAFI 129 IPv6-related address family, the ipv6 unicast-routing command must be configured on the device. 1

Information About To create a multicast IPv6 VRF address family under BGP, IPv6 must first be activated on the VRF itself. Note There is no separate multicast configuration on the VRF.

2 Information About To create a multicast IPv6 VRF address family under BGP, IPv6 must first be activated on the VRF itself. Note There is no separate multicast configuration on the VRF. Configuring the address-family ipv6 command on the VRF will enable both unicast and multicast topologies. If you want prefixes to be installed into the Routing Information Base (RIB), you must configure the pim command on a VRF interface. Information About Overview of MVPN utilizes the existing VPN infrastructure to allow multicast traffic to pass through the provider space. Information derived from VPN routes is one of the components needed to set up tunnels within the core. Currently, multicast traffic will derive this information from the unicast VPNv6 tables, which forces multicast traffic to be dependent on unicast topologies. For scenarios in which multicast and unicast traffic would be better suited with separate topologies, the customer edge (CE) router may advertise a special set of routes to be used exclusively for multicast VPNs. Multicast routes learned from the CE router can be propagated to remote provider edge (PE) routers via SAFI 129. Multicast routes learned from the CE router or multicast VPN routes learned from remote PE routers can now be installed directly into the multicast RIB, instead of using replicated routes from the unicast RIB. Maintaining separate routes and entries for unicast and multicast allows you to create differing topologies for each service within the core. 2

Enter your password if prompted. Enters global configuration mode. Step 3 Device# configure terminal vrf definition vrf1 Device(config)# vrf definition vrf1 Defines a VRF instance and enters VRF configuration mode. 3

4 Configuring Step 4 Command or Action rd route-distinguisher Purpose Specifies a route distinguisher (RD) for a VRF instance. Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Step 8 Step 9 Device(config-vrf)# rd 1:1 route-target export route-target-ext-community Device(config-vrf)# route-target export 1:1 route-target import route-target-ext-community Device(config-vrf)# route-target import 1:1 address-family ipv6 Device(config-vrf)# address-family ipv6 mdt default group-address Device(config-vrf-af)# mdt default exit Device(config-vrf-af)# exit Creates a route target export extended community for a VRF instance. Creates a route target import extended community for a VRF instance. Configures a routing session using IPv6 address prefixes and enters address family configuration mode. Configures a default multicast distribution tree (MDT) group for a VRF instance. Exits address family configuration mode and enters VRF configuration mode. Step 10 Step 11 exit Device(config-vrf)# exit router bgp autonomous-system-number Device(config)# router bgp Exits VRF configuration mode and enters global configuration mode. Configures a BGP routing process and enters router configuration mode. 4

5 Configuration Examples for Step 12 Command or Action address-family vpnv6 multicast Device(config-router)# address-family vpnv6 multicast Purpose Configures a routing session using VPN Version 6 multicast address prefixes and enters address family configuration mode. Step 13 neighbor peer-group-name send-community extended Specifies that a communities attribute should be sent to a BGP neighbor. Device(config-router-af)# neighbor client1 send-community extended Step 14 neighbor {ip-address peer-group-name ipv6-address %} activate Enables the neighbor to exchange prefixes for the specified family type with the neighbor and the local router. Step 15 Step 16 Router(config-router-af)# neighbor 2001:DB8:0:CC00::1 % activate address-family ipv6 multicast vrf vrf-name Device(config-router-af)# address-family ipv6 multicast vrf vrf1 end Device(config-router-af)# end Configures a routing session using IPv6 multicast address prefixes for a VRF instance. Exits address family configuration mode and returns to privileged EXEC mode.
